Announcing Journal Buddies: A Wonderful Parent/Kid Summer Journaling Activity 

Hillman, Minnesota—June 19, 2007—Concerned youth worker unveils new approach to journaling that WILL help parents and kids connect through interactive and creative journaling.

Powerful journal helps parents and kids connect, and kids will gain improved self-esteem too.  Interactive and guided, this is no ordinary journal.  It's a celebration of qualities, traits and talents that parents like about their kids and that kids like about their parents.

These simple but powerful books, Journal Buddies (for girls and for boys), include innovative and creative journaling tools such as 89 Creative Journaling Tips, thought for the day, lined and unlined pages and a focus word of the day.

Parents and kids complete each of the 30 entries in Journal Buddies as a team AND are encouraged to write, draw, cut, paste, and create in their own unique journaling styles.  Even more exciting is that Journal Buddies can be done be done with a buddy who has the book or with a buddy who doesn't.  It works both ways.

"I highly recommend this journal."

Self-esteem drops during adolescence for everyone.  An AAUW nationwide survey reported in 1991 that while on average 69 percent of boys and 60 percent of girls in elementary school said they were "happy the way I am," in high school, 46 percent of boys and only 29 percent of girls claimed this satisfaction.

And according to Kidsource.com, "The extent to which children believe they have the characteristics valued by the important adults and peers in their lives figures greatly in the development of self-esteem."

With Journal Buddies parents CAN make a BIG difference in the development of their kids self-esteem, because they will:

1.  Connect -- Each entry is a fun adventure in creative journaling.

2.  Communicate -- The 30 entries get and keep parents and kids talking.

3.  Celebrate -- Who doesn't like to be told how amazing they are and what is loved about them? 

That's what Journal Buddies is all about... focusing on and celebrating the positives and building self-esteem in the process!
